Focus 9 to 5

Working Class Hero

To complement the “Urban Sketchers @ Work” exhibition, Fantoche is showcasing four short films in the gallery at Gluri Suter Huus. Be it humorous, profound or in the stylistic vein of an apocalyptic musical, the films tell of wistful desires and the harsh reality of a working day driven by efficiency.
